This outdoor ice maker provides a seemingly limitless supply of ice on tap for any occasion--up to 35 pounds of clear ice a day. Its brushed stainless steel finish adds a level of sophistication to any space.

This ice maker is unique in forming ice. It uses fractional freezing to form a slab of ice that is clear and has less mineral content than the water it is produced from. This is accomplished by running water over the cold evaporator plate which gradually freezes the water to produce the ice slab. Mineral deposits are left in the reservoir.

When the ice slab reaches the correct thickness determined by the temperature of the evaporator plate, the electronic control switches to the harvest cycle to harvest the ice. During the harvest cycle, the ice slab falls from the evaporator to the ice grid cutter. Here, the ice slab is cut into 3/4" squares by the grid cutter's heated wires. During the harvest cycle, the drain valve will remain open for 45 seconds to drain the reservoir of remaining deposits. After that, the water valve will open for two minutes providing two quarts of water to the reservoir for the next production cycle.

The ice maker will keep producing ice until the ice maker's bin is full and will restart automatically when ice needs to be replenished in the bin.
